"Everything changed when I met the Lord Jesus. I was so thrilled to be a child of God, I quit the building business. That cost me a sizeable fortune. I went back to school to train for the ministry which required four more years of college, plus three years of seminary (Magna Cum Laude). Then more graduate work in other schools, picking up a couple of PhD's and a DD. I found time to be a director of the Lockman Foundation and served as an editor of the Amplified New Testament. Also, spent three years as Chaplain to the sick and dying at Los Angeles County General Hospital. I later became an Air Force Chaplain, retiring as Lt. Colonel. My soul was aflame with the idea of bringing people to Jesus. I became involved in street evangelism and in the process perfected the skill of confronting people with Jesus in a way that they knew He was alive. Then the Lord sent Warren Belknap into my life who encouraged me to put the skill into a book in 1954. We called it Soul-Winning Made Easy and it proved to be a powerful book with many Christians winning their first souls to Christ. This book proved to me the power of a book and I decided to use that power to get God's people ready for the Lord's return. Since then, 45 books have been written all to that single purpose."

This is the second book of visions received by an Argentine evangelist. " "In January of 1949, I came to what appeared to be the bitter end of my missionary career. With another missionary, Robert T, we went to a town named Lavelle (the valley) that lay in the foothills of the great Andes Mountains. Our purpose was to hold a Gospel crusade in a town where, to our knowledge, the Gospel had never been preached before. We fully believed that in that totally churchless town, we would be privileged to see the mighty wonders and see the power of the Holy Spirit manifested before out eyes and see a great spiritual impact on that town. We fully expected to see manifestations such as had happened in the days of my childhood in the old Baptist Church in Ashland, Oregon. With great anticipation we prepared a tent with what we considered to be proper evangelical accouterment. We labored happily in the hot Andean sun. We dutifully filled the air with recorded music and faithfully visited every home in the community, distributing tracts and Gospel portions. We prayed many hours daily and prepared fine messages for the great congregation we expected to come. Night after night we held a find service, but . Not one single person attended – not even a child came to see if the tent might be a circus. Then came the torrential rains and flooded us out, but we still kept on. Yet in spite of all our efforts, witnessing, testifying and preaching, we still had a zero congregation. The strong man of Argentina ruled contemptuously over every city, large and small. After two weeks of expense and labors, we were forced to retreat in bitter disappointment and failure. We had absolutely no fruit for our labors. For me, that defeat marked the end of a long trail and the beginning of a new one." ". Very Good .
